I think they're alright but i'd still take an Ibanez 8 over them anyday.

the ibanez 8 might look better, but at least esp is giving a couple different options/models so we can at least afford one

i'd like the STEF B-8 and sc608b better with a reversed headstock, its a little to boring looking right now just in black

Interesting to note the FM408 and SC608B have the same body, but the carve on the Stef-B8 is different.

Those are great, no doubts

I wonder if this is because the FM may be bolt-on or set-neck and the SC is likely to be neck-thru.

I love everything about the SC except for the 8-inline headstock. The FM for me.

I dunno, the two LTDs look identical (body shape-wise), it's only the ESP Stef that's different.

I like the SC-608B the best! and oddly I like that huge ass 8 in line headstock, smells like testosterone

Too bad it doesn't come with an ebony board like the Steph 8

Codyyy · 01-08-2008, 04:18 PM

Wow. Never thought I would consider an 8! But the SC608B looks fucking beastly. And if whoever that was was correct, and it's $999 street, that's definitely doable.

But the REAL question is, now with 8's this affordable, how trendy do you think it will be now for kids to chug on that low F# rather than learn to play decently

+1

i want rondo to finish their eight string design now.

I like the SC out of all of the production 8's...even the hockey stick headstock. But I still like the Ibanezs' hardware better...namely, the bridge.
